Hello Book Lovers, February is Black History Month, and we have some wonderful programs in this year's Black History Celebration, including a virtual book-talk program. There's also plenty of time to complete Winter Reading Challenge, if you haven't yet. It runs through the end of this month. We also hope you'll look ahead to March, and join us at our non-fiction virtual book-talk program. Find out more about all of this in the Upcoming Programs and News sections below. Let me know if you have any questions. We look forward to sharing our love of books with you! Happy Reading, Sarah
